Seize the Birthday - Sketch

This time at Seize the Birthday our "Topping" is a Sketch.  Isn't that fun!  I always love a good sketch, it does half of the work for you.  Of course, if you aren't into sketches, it's always "Anything Goes" as long as it's for a birthday.

Here's my card



I thought I would make a more masculine feeling card, and give it to my son-in-law for his birthday! His birthday is actually on Valentine's Day, and hearts and flowers were just not going to work.  This sketch seemed like the perfect solution.  I picked some fun patterned paper from Doodlebug and paired it with a new stamp set from Gina K. Designs called Birthday Go Round, that fit perfectly with some of my circle dies.  I love the arrow die from Reverse Confetti, so used it to point the way to the sentiment.

Please visit the Seize the Birthday blog to see the wonderful cards the rest of the team have made this time.  I hope you will be inspired and want to play along with us.
